[Dm]Little white [F]pills [G]and [Dm]whisk[F]ey
[Dm]Honky [F]tonks and [Dm]smoke[F]
[Dm]One night [F]stands with his [Dm]country [F]band

[Dm]Everything [F]was[G] dar[Dm]knes[F]s
Was[Dm]n't no [F]light [G]at a[Dm]ll
Just the cold dank air [G]and
[Dm]the pitch black [F]dirt
And [G]the spider[Dm] s o[F]n the [Dm]walls
Well, he [G]laid down beneath a ledge
[Gsus4]And curled up[G] there to meet his
judgment [Dm]day[F][Dm][F]
[Am]The shivering came [G]upon him
wave by [F]wave[Dm][F][E][Dm]
[F]Well, he cou[Am]ld feel the breath of death in[Dm]

[Verse 4]
Then [G]high above him shone a [F]light[Dm]
[G]He never would for[F]get
[Dm]Then he [Am]heard a voice say, "Johnny Cash,
I ain't through with you yet.
Get up[F], I ain't t[Dm]hrough w[F]ith y[G]ou y[Dm]et.[F]
[E]I ain[Dm]'t through with you
get [F]Johnny [Dm]Cash,
Get [F]up."

[Verse 5]
[Dm][F]
[Dm]Then he crawled [D]out from
[Dm]beneath that ledge
And felt a gentle breeze
Tears and dirt smeared on his face
As peaceful [Am]as c[Dm]ould be
Well, he [G]knelt down upon the ground
Raised his eyes up [Gsus4]to the li[G]ght
[F]and [Dm]prayed[F][E][Dm]
He said, [Am]"Lord, I'll be your ser[G]vant
from [F]this [Dm]day."[F][E][Dm]
That's how he be[Am]came "The Man In [G]Black
" [F]in Nickajack[Dm]Cave[F][E][Dm]
